Attune Technologies, engaged in the development of healthcare IT platforms, has unveiled two new powerful apps, ‘DoCom’ and ‘PathWorks’, which are poised to change the way doctors and hospital staff interact and collaborate, potentially help save lives. The two app were launched at the Arab Health being held in Dubai between January 25-28, 2016.
This according to the company, it is a one-of-its-kind secure collaboration platform for the healthcare community across the world paving the way for a new era in communication which would result in better patient outcomes.
Speaking on the occasion, Arvind Kumar, Founder and CEO, Attune Technologies said, “DoCoM and PathWorks are tools designed by doctors for doctors to offer seamless communication and notification that is created based around the doctor’s schedule”.
With the DoCoM app, it is now possible for hospitals to share images like X ray, ECG, Clinical pictures (like a skin rash) and videos including angiogram) with a closed group of doctors. The app is designed to cater to most of the routine yet time consuming communications such as discharge, lab report, minor clinical problems and case sheet requirements to help hospital staff move faster. In case of PathWorks it empowers the doctors to view lab report results, see previous reports and authorize on the go from their handheld device.
“While the existing messaging platforms make collaborations easier, they are neither secure, nor designed for medical applications. It means, the doctor has to spend time typing out all the instructions clearly and later track them to see if they were followed through. This is compounded by the inability of the doctor to keep track of everyone’s phone number. The intuitive user interface of DoCom and PathWorks apps help doctors take quick decisions and stay in touch with hospital staff 24x7 breaking geographic barriers. The other challenge with discussing patient data in a platform is maintaining the sanctity of patient confidentiality which is addressed by these apps from Attune,” said Dr. Anand Gnanaraj, co-founder and chief medical officer, Attune.
The company has customers in over 14 countries for its HIS, LIS, business intelligence and medical device integration products and solutions in the healthcare space.
